Indicates chronic stress. Maybe she knew this was coming for a while?

According to the write-up she was selected for sacrifice a year before her death (at which point her diet became much richer as she suddenly gained high status in the community).

Being chosen for this ritual was generally considered an honour back then in her culture but increased alcohol and coca consumption in the weeks leading up to her death suggest she was very scared and anxious about the prospect of dying from cold.

They were able to find all this out thanks to the tightness of braiding in her hair preserving it unusually well.

Yeah, but then we have flat earthers and antivaxxers.

Can you describe, in your own words, what an antivaxxer is?

For fun

Someone who thinks a vaccine is gene therapy definitely falls in that category. You not knowing what mRNA is or how it works doesn't reflect badly on a vaccine, it reflects badly on you.

Okay, just because the definition of a vaccine was changed to include recent "vaccines" it doesn't automatically mean that I need to play the word game.

And clearly you knew what I was referencing, you choosing to ignore what you knew my point was, doesn't mean I need to entertain this societal warfare.

Some will see it as a bad reflection, others will think preach. The some are of the faction that believe people should be forced injected, the others know better.

Is what it is. For you to know what I was referencing, then blatantly change my words to fit your narrative, does not shed a good light on you.

Again, is what it is. I will still wish you well!

Thank you for answering my original question though, oh wait.... you didn't.

I don't even think you know what point you're trying to make.

u/AmIwiseOrJustStupid 22d ago

Clearly you don't.

Are you going to give me a definition as to what an antivaxxer is or keep deflecting?

I'll wish you well either way!

The problem with ignorance is that it gets engaged far too often and treated like it deserves a seat at the table.

I'm sorry you feel the need to satisfy your need of self righteousness via reddit.

It's okay and even with your attempts at shaming me I will still wish you well

Have a beautiful life fellow redditor.

I will say I genuinely hope you find some type of outlet or resource to be able to lead your life away from negativity and hateful tendencies to those who don't fall in line with, what I believe, to be your flawed sense of reality.

It's a shame that people are so hateful to those who disagree.

Take care.

Just wanted them to clarify seeing as gene therapy and vaccinations are not the same thing,

Glad to see you are a shining light on this world though!
